We love a good mystery! Can you guess what this object is? You can have your family help with your guess. You can have mom or dad help you with the spelling. Remember to be a good digital citizen for our 3rd grade friends in Mrs. Fox's class in Rochester, NY.
What a fun object! Meredith guessed right! It is a canning wrench. It was used to hold canning jars steady and upright while being filled with foods that were boiling hot. It was also designed so you could take one wire loop off and replace it with a different sized wire loop for different sized jars. It was patented on May 27, 1902 it was made of iron.
